From our first conversation with the team at Riverwood Manor by Wedgewood Weddings, we knew we were in good hands. The staff was thorough and kind throughout the planning process, responding quickly to every question and detail we had. On our wedding day, they didn't miss a beat—the food and drinks were excellent, the music was perfect, and the ambience felt thoughtfully designed just for us. They had our signature cocktails ready the moment Chase and I finished signing our certificate, and the beautiful space with its large room and elegant decorations made everything feel special. Our guests had a blast, and honestly, so did we. We can't thank the Riverwood Manor team enough for making our day exactly what we dreamed it would be.

Our experience at The Abbey Salisbury was amazing! Michelle and Jacqui were incredibly responsive, helpful, and detailed in their communication, ensuring that every aspect of our wedding day was taken care of. The quality of their work and the value they provided was exceptional and the decor they arranged was absolutely beautiful. The Abbey team managed all the details, taking care of the set up and clean up so we could fully enjoy our special day. Our family, friends, and even guests were all highly impressed. We had the weekend package, and the annex was clean and spacious, stocked with toiletries, coffee, and other necessities. Even the beds were comfy! We couldn't have asked for a better venue and team to host our wedding, and thanks to them, our day was an absolute dream!

I held my son and his now wife’s reception here in Sept 2024. You will not find a better person to work with than Sandra. She has the best idea’s and will help make your event special and perfect. The Bonaparte castle is a must see to appreciate its beauty. Her way of putting ideas together with your own brings her event space to life. Not only are the renovating a castle but they have a great outdoor space including a fire pit. There is a small tavern that can be used for that very purpose. I am holding my own wedding and reception here next Oct and couldn’t be more excited to work with her again. Please enjoy my photos.
